Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier International (YOW) serves as the city’s primary international gateway and government-focused hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers and budget airlines on domestic, U.S., and some transborder routes. It’s located about 10 km south of downtown Ottawa, with travel times ranging roughly 20–30 minutes by car depending on traffic. Public transport includes OC Transpo buses and an airport-downtown shuttle, typically taking 30–45 minutes; taxi or rideshare fares can often be expected in a moderate range compared with larger Canadian hubs. Pros: compact terminals and relatively short security lines make transfers convenient. Cons: fewer nonstop long-haul choices and limited late-night services compared with major international hubs.

Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is the city’s main international hub, typically handling most long-haul and premium carriers and often perceived as mid-to-upper range in fares; it lies about 30 km northwest of the centre and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes (tickets usually in a modest range) or by taxi in 45–70 minutes depending on traffic. Vnukovo (VKO) to the southwest is commonly used by low-cost and some charter airlines and can feel more budget-friendly; it’s around 28 km from central Moscow with Aeroexpress and buses offering 35–60 minute transfers and taxis varying by traffic. Domodedovo (DME) southeast of the city tends to serve a mix of international and regional carriers and is often seen as mid-priced; Aeroexpress trains link it to the centre in about 45–55 minutes, while road journeys can take longer in peak hours. Zhukovsky (ZIA) and Ostafyevo handle more niche, charter or business traffic and can be convenient for specific airlines or private flights but are further out and offer fewer public transport options. Pros across airports include a range of carrier choices and multiple transfer modes; cons can include variable travel times because of Moscow traffic and differing levels of terminal facilities depending on the airport.

Fly nonstop from Moscow to Ottawa for the fastest, most convenient way to bridge Russia and Canada — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting options can sometimes be cheaper, choosing a direct flight saves time and offers a more relaxed travel experience, making it ideal for business trips or leisure visits to Canada’s capital.

In different months, ticket prices from Moscow to Ottawa vary: minimum — $606 (January 2026), maximum — $984 (August 2026). Typically, the flight costs $740–$1,443.
